Message from Sheila
Hey all! Just wanted to keep you guys up to date on what we've got going on this summer. We're working on some new music. Not sure when it will be ready, but so far Chris, Alex, and I are having a great time. I'm really loving what's coming out of our jamming sessions so far. We'll definitely keep you posted on our progress.
Besides recording, we've got several other projects in the works including a children's book, a trip to Alaska, and family visiting from Denmark. So, it's going to be a really busy time for us. But we'll be back out this fall. Stay tuned...
Hugs,
Sheila

The folks at Willie Nelson's PRI website are at it again. They contacted Sheila a few days ago to ask if they could feature "The War," a song Sheila wrote about her brother, on Willie's website. It's an honor to be able to contribute to Willie's peace project once again. willienelsonpri.com
